This feature gate was redundant with the `--config` flag, which already
enables/disables loading Kubelet config from a file.
Since the gate guarded an alpha feature, removing it is not a violation
of our API guidelines.
Some stuff in `kubernetes/test-infra` currently sets the gate,
so removing will be a 3 step process:
1. This PR, which makes the gate a no-op.
2. Stop setting the gate in `kubernetes/test-infra`.
3. Completely remove the gate.

Node e2e non docker specific
Fixes https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/57977.
Make node e2e test generic to container runtimes.
With this change, other than tests with `[Feature:Docker]`, all tests can run against all CRI container runtimes.
Note that this PR also marks cpu manager test as `Serial`, because it restarts kubelet during the test. It doesn't cause problem in regular node e2e suite today, because it is skipped if node has less than 2 CPUs, which is the case for our test environment. /cc @balajismaniam

This allows the e2e node test framework to generate a kubelet config
file containing the defaults it would typically pass to a test via
flags, rather than passing these defaults as flags.

Changes the Kubelet configuration flag precedence order so that flags
take precedence over config from files/ConfigMaps.
See issue #56171 for more details.
Also modifies e2e node test suite to transform all relevant Kubelet
flags into a config file before starting tests when the
KubeletConfigFile feature gate is true, and turns on the
KubeletConfigFile gate for all e2e node tests. This allows the alpha
dynamic Kubelet config feature to continue to work in tests after
the precedence change.
Replaces use of --api-servers with --kubeconfig in Kubelet args across
the turnup scripts. In many cases this involves generating a kubeconfig
file for the Kubelet and placing it in the correct location on the node.
This adds a simple CNI configuration which is added to the node during test setup.
This also modifies the default flags in services/kubelet.go to specify the "cni-bin-dir"
and the "cni-conf-dir" and removes the "network-plugin-dir" flag. This leaves the default
network plugin to kubenet.
